<h2>About 4-H</h2>
<h3>What is 4-H?</h3>

<p>4-H is a place where young people are given many opportunities to build confidence, learn responsibility, and develop skills that will last them a lifetime. It's a place where youth make friends and share interests, ranging from building robots to raising rabbits, and from making jams to creating art. It's a place where youth work together to make a positive difference in their community, and adult volunteers make a powerful difference in the lives of young people. Get involved in the 4-H community and make a lasting difference!</p>

<h3>What Do 4-H Members Do?</h3>

<p>4-H clubs have regular meetings and officers, but that is just the start. 4-H members get involved in their communities as volunteers and youth leaders. They learn new things by completing dozens of different kinds of projects. They go on trips, have parties, host international students, learn how to make a rocket, experiment with science, make art, go to 4-H Camp, learn how to preserve food, how to take care of an animal, and so much more...
The list is almost endless. With so many choices, 4-H is what you want it to be.

<h3>How Do 4-H Youth Make a Difference in Their Communities?</h3>

<p>4-H offers lots of encouragement and support for kids who want to organize and carry out volunteer projects. They collect food for the Tri-Valley Haven, sing at the Veterans Hospital, throw a party for underprivileged kids, and work with older adults, mentor younger students, or get involved in other kinds of volunteer and service projects. In some communities, older 4-H youth serve as youth representatives in city or county governments or have opportunities to participate in State 4H programs.</p>
